Pampered by my three brothers: the return of the neglected heiress

Chapter 427

Chapter 427: Strength test

"Tell me, Nathaniel... why shouldn't I burn you alive, aside from the fact that it's not morally correct?"

Nathaniel gulped nervously, knowing that one wrong word could lead to his incineration. Zoren was not joking, and he knew that. After all, Nathaniel had just revealed to the man behind the Phantom Circle that he knew their true identity.

How would he get away from that? Just knowing a member of that group was dangerous enough. What more if someone knew the person behind the group? Nathaniel took a deep breath and tried to calm his racing heart. He opened his mouth to explain but stopped when he heard the commotion outside.

"It's there!"

"They're there!"

"Black cat on the loose! I repeat, black cat on the loose!"

Deep lines appeared between Nathaniel's brows as he heard loud footsteps and yells outside. He could see hurried silhouettes through the obscured window, but couldn't understand the gravity of the situation outside.

'What's going on outside?' he wondered. 'Could there be an enemy here? That's bold of them if that's true. This is basically the Phantom Circle's hive.'

Nathaniel wasn't the only one distracted by the commotion. Everyone in the room furrowed their brows and glanced at their leader, Mark.

Mark turned away, pressing his earpiece to get a report from his people outside. Most of Zoren's men were still outside the manor, while the night shift bodyguards from Prime Group were on duty. There were plenty of people outside who could provide answers.

But then...

"Sir - ackk!"

Mark raised an eyebrow when all he heard from the other end was a scream followed by static. Alarm bells went off in his head, and he glanced at Zoren.

'The black cat hadn't been here since we arrived,' he thought, guessing this was Zoren's usual welcoming party. He also heard voices outside mentioning the black cat. So, even without the reports, he knew his men were probably busy with Renny.
